CAD Issue with curved patterns

Post image

Hi everyone, im a beginner in solidworks and i recently started drawing a piping system in wich im planning to use bearings; Unfortunately I am having some issues on performing estrusion cut following a specific line, the patter function wont work because the curve isnt one contineus curve but lines and arcs combined;
It would be very gratefull for any suggestion :)

If you use the "Make Path" sketch tool on the sketch,,, it will work. Right click > sketch tools > make path. In my part (in response to this response) I use the "Curve driven Pattern".

I had tryed with the path tool but the function keeps selecting only one line (in the reply the outcome)
